The first and most popular way being of investing is to purchase real estate to hold for the longterm. The other method consists of purchasing, updating and selling property within a 6 monthtime frame and generating a 30% return on investment. This method can also be expanded intoan options situation whereby the investor puts a property under contract to be sold to him bygiving the seller a $1,000.00 deposit while signing a P&S agreement. After the agreement is signedby both parties and the investor has legal footing, the investor locates a contractor and proceedsto sell the contract. The time for performance in most agreements is ninety days. Within thattime frame the investor collects the difference between what his agreement says that he is payingand what his purchaser is paying him.
